I am definitely no good at keeping this up, I must try harder.  My book is coming along nicely, if everyone who has expressed interest in being included comes up with the goods then everything will be fine.  I have spoken to some very interesting people along the way which is brilliant.  Weather today is totally frightful.  I had a pipe fall of the side of the house, and when I went to collect my 4x4 from the garage this morning to get the spare wheel off the back, a new valve and balancing cost me £49!!!!! I AM NOT AMUSED.  Evidently they charge £60 an hour for car repairs!!!!!!!!!  Hope the evening turns out better.
